Access Point as reapeter

[Kevin_Monsta]

Hi, anybody know why AP can not stand alone as AP? i have 1 AP that connected as repeater even i have set the IP before. it connected to switch and not using power adaptor

If the AP is configured with a static IP, it will advertise "ssid name-bad gateway" when the default gateway is unavailable. If it has no other APs to mesh with that provide a route to the Internet, the AP will remain offline.

If it does find another AP with a route to the Internet, it will act as a repeater but the Dashboard will report that it has an invalid IP configuration.

Try to re-open the link now.  Apparently there was an issue earlier where ever the documents reside.

It's very likely that this isn't connecting to the internet.

Can you verify the IP address configured on the dashboard when it's set up as a repeater?

Try performing a factory reset 

[Kevin_Monsta]

we have set the IP, but we cant change the IP then. the IP not shown on dashboard.

this is new AP, should i do factory reset?

[alemabrahao]

Try performing a factory reset please.

If you connect a laptop to the switchport the AP is on does it get a DHCP IP (or does a static IP work)? That would at least confirm the switch is properly configured (carrying the mgmt VLAN for APs for example).
